| 7 | +modes, and advanced usage. |
| 8 | + |
| 9 | +Packaged with [skillpm](https://github.com/sbroenne/skillpm) — the package manager for |
| 10 | +[Agent Skills](https://agentskills.io). Install once, and skillpm handles resolution, |
| 11 | +agent wiring, and config deployment automatically. |
| 12 | + |
| 13 | +## Install |
| 14 | + |
| 15 | +```bash |
| 16 | +# Install with skillpm (recommended) |

| 20 | +npx skillpm install copilot-cli-guide |
| 21 | +``` |
| 22 | + |
| 23 | +## What's included |
| 24 | + |
| 25 | +- **Keyboard shortcuts** — global, editing, and navigation |
| 26 | +- **Slash commands** — full reference table for all CLI commands |
| 27 | +- **Modes** — interactive, plan, and autopilot |
| 28 | +- **Context management** — file inclusion, token usage, directories |
| 29 | +- **Session management** — resume, rename, share |
| 30 | +- **MCP & LSP configuration** — setup and usage |
| 31 | +- **Custom instructions locations** — where Copilot reads instructions from |
| 32 | +- **CLI flags** — useful startup options |
| 33 | + |
| 34 | +## When does Copilot load this skill? |
| 35 | + |
| 36 | +Copilot loads this skill when you ask about CLI features, capabilities, slash commands, |
| 37 | +keyboard shortcuts, or how to use specific Copilot CLI functionality. |
| 38 | + |
| 39 | +## Part of the Copilot CLI Blueprint |
| 40 | + |
| 41 | +This skill is from the [github-copilot-cli](https://github.com/trsdn/github-copilot-cli) |
| 42 | +blueprint repository. See also: |

| 44 | +- [`copilot-setup-audit`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/copilot-setup-audit) — Audit your Copilot setup |
| 45 | +- [`copilot-skill-builder`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/copilot-skill-builder) — Create new skills |
| 46 | + |
| 47 | +> **Why skillpm?** The [Agent Skills spec](https://agentskills.io) defines what a skill is — but |
| 48 | +> not how to publish, install, or share them. [skillpm](https://skillpm.dev) fills that gap by |
| 49 | +> mapping Agent Skills onto npm's ecosystem: same registry, same versioning, same dependency |
| 50 | +> management. Small skills that compose, not monoliths that overlap. |
